Garegin Baghramyan, Chairman of the Public Services Regulatory Commission, held a yearend press conference. The local media asked him what phase the negotiations with Russia are for the natural gas tariffs in Armenia, what trends they predict, what gas tariffs we will have in April.
He replied: “I think at this phase it is still early to predict that we will have a change in April. But in what form and how, I cannot say anything new; who knows. The negotiations are in progress, and they will enter a more active phase in January-February. "
Asked what the developments in the international market show, whether there is a rising trend or maybe a fall in prices, Baghramyan replied: “Let's leave that question. It depends largely on what price we will have at the border, which will be clear in the near future—in January. ”
Mr. Baghramyan also said that the gas talks with Iran are quite active. “Of course, the Iranian side is a complicated negotiating company. Those negotiations are actively going on today
